Backloop

Vinnicius Martins shows the backloop

The backloop is a jump that, unlike a frontside 360, is jumped more upwind. The board is higher in the air than the body and is brought down nose-first after the rotation to land.

The body weight hangs on the wing the whole time. The airflow in the wing always comes from the same side. As soon as the nose of the board points downwards, the wing turns into a dive.

As frontside 360, backloop and pushloop are difficult to identify depending on the execution, this video can help with the classification.
